Steps

1

Head a tablespoon of olive oil in a non stick frying pan. (If adding optional extras such as minced garlic and additional vegetables, add them now and soften)
2

Add the halved baby plum tomatoes to the pan on a low-medium heat and stir until they begin to release their juices.
3

Add the rosemary and cream (until desired sauce consistency is reached) and add salt and pepper to taste. (Optional chilli flakes if desired).
4

Heat slowly for a further 2-3 minutes (I prefer this if the tomatoes still retain their form) and then mix with pasta, spoon over chicken/cod or use as a side dish. The posibilities are endless.
